And a string fastener is a tool which is adjusted so that the dimension of the string-like member provided so that it may go around the opening of clothes may be adjusted so that the opening may be maintained in the expanded or narrowed state.
 一般に、紐留め具は、筒状の本体と、この筒状の本体に対して移動可能なクランプ部と、このクランプ部を常時離脱方向に弾性力を付与している弾性部とから構成されている。本体とクランプ部には、それぞれ挿通孔が形成されている。そして、本体の挿通孔とクランプ部の挿通孔に挿入された紐状部材は、両方の挿通孔をずれさせて、両方の通し穴の縁で挟み付けるようにして固定、すなわち留められる。そして、この状態から、クランプ部を弾性部の弾性力に抗して移動させ、本体とクランプ部の挿通孔をほぼ一致させることにより紐状部材に対して紐留め具が移動可能となっている。このように、従来からある紐留め具は、本体部、クランプ部および弾性部の3つの部品より構成されている。 Generally, the string fastener comprises a cylindrical main body, a clamp portion movable with respect to the cylindrical main body, and an elastic portion which always applies an elastic force in the disengaging direction of the clamp portion. There is. Insertion holes are respectively formed in the main body and the clamp portion. Then, the string-like members inserted into the insertion holes of the main body and the insertion holes of the clamp portion are fixed, that is, held so as to sandwich both insertion holes with each other at the edges of both through holes. Then, from this state, the clamp portion is moved against the elastic force of the elastic portion, and the string fastener can be moved relative to the string-like member by making the main body and the insertion holes of the clamp portion substantially coincide. . Thus, the conventional strap fastener is comprised of three parts, a main body, a clamp and an elastic part.

 また、ハウジングと、ハウジングの中で弾性部材により付勢され、スライド可能なスライダーからなり、ハウジングとスライダーは共に貫通孔を有するコードロックにおいて、コードロックの底部に雄ねじがハウジングと一体成形されている技術が知られている(例えば、特許文献2参照)。 Further, the housing and the slider which is urged by the elastic member in the housing and is slidable, and the housing and the slider both have through holes, and the male screw is integrally formed with the housing at the bottom of the cord lock. A technology is known (see, for example, Patent Document 2).
 さらに、クランプ部材とばね部材とを軟質の材料で一体形成された留め具において、所望のばね力を有し所望の保持力で保持することができる紐状体の留め具の技術が知られている(例えば、特許文献3参照)。 Furthermore, in a fastener in which the clamp member and the spring member are integrally formed of a soft material, a technique of a cord-like fastener that has a desired spring force and can be held with a desired holding force is known. (See, for example, Patent Document 3).

 図3に示すように、本体部11には、第1開口部11A寄りの部分に第1挿通孔20A、20Bが形成されている。第1挿通孔20A、20Bは、紐状部材24を挿通させるための孔である。第1挿通孔20Aは、本体部11の筒状の側壁と案内面21Aを貫通して形成されている。第1挿通孔20Bは、本体部11の筒状の側壁と案内面21Bを貫通して形成されている。第1挿通孔20A、20Bは、上下方向の長さが前後方向の長さよりも長い楕円形状または略楕円形状である。第1挿通孔20A、20Bが、かかる形状であることで、複数の紐状部材24を第1挿通孔20A、20Bに挿通させることができる。 As shown in FIG. 3, in the main body portion 11, first insertion holes 20 </ b> A and 20 </ b> B are formed in a portion near the first opening 11 </ b> A. The first insertion holes 20A and 20B are holes through which the string-like member 24 is inserted. The first insertion hole 20A is formed so as to penetrate the cylindrical side wall of the main body 11 and the guide surface 21A. The first insertion hole 20B is formed so as to penetrate the cylindrical side wall of the main body 11 and the guide surface 21B. The first insertion holes 20A and 20B have an elliptical shape or a substantially elliptical shape in which the length in the vertical direction is longer than the length in the front-rear direction. Since the first insertion holes 20A and 20B have such a shape, the plurality of string-like members 24 can be inserted into the first insertion holes 20A and 20B.
 図3に示すように、本体部11には、第2開口部11B側に係合雌部22A、22Bが形成されている。係合雌部22A、22Bは、本体部11と嵌合底部17とを係合するための長方形形状の孔である。係合雌部22A、22Bは、本体部11の筒状の側壁と案内面21A、21Bを貫通して凹状に形成されている。図2に示すように、係合雌部22Aの幅寸法22Wは、係合雄部19Aの幅寸法19Wと同じ程度に形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 3, in the main body portion 11, engaging female portions 22 </ b> A and 22 </ b> B are formed on the second opening 11 </ b> B side. The engagement female portions 22A and 22B are rectangular holes for engaging the main body portion 11 and the fitting bottom portion 17. The engagement female portions 22A and 22B are formed in a concave shape through the cylindrical side wall of the main body portion 11 and the guide surfaces 21A and 21B. As shown in FIG. 2, the width dimension 22W of the engagement female portion 22A is formed to the same extent as the width dimension 19W of the engagement male portion 19A.
 図2に示すように、係合雌部22Aの高さ寸法22Hは、係合雄部19Aの高さ寸法19Hと同じ程度に形成されている。なお、図示していないが、係合雌部22Bも同様の寸法で形成されている。係合雌部22A、22Bは、紐留め具10が組み立てられたときに、本体部11の後方側の端部と嵌合底部17の後方側の端部が同一の面上に位置するように、本体部11の後方側の所定の位置に形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 2, the height dimension 22H of the engagement female portion 22A is formed to the same extent as the height dimension 19H of the engagement male portion 19A. Although not shown, the engagement female portion 22B is also formed in the same size. The engagement female parts 22A and 22B are positioned such that the rear end of the main body 11 and the rear end of the fitting bottom 17 are on the same plane when the string fastener 10 is assembled. The main body 11 is formed at a predetermined position on the rear side.
 図1に示すように、クランプ部12は、本体部11の第2開口部11Bに仮止部14によって取り付けられている。クランプ部12は、紐留め具10として組み立てられたときに、本体部11と共に紐状部材24を挟み込む部材である。クランプ部12は、前方から見た場合、上下方向の幅が左右方向の幅よりも長い楕円形状または略楕円形状の断面形状を有している柱状の部材である。クランプ部12がかかる形状を呈していることで、クランプ部12の前方端面の断面積が大きくなり、この部分を押す使用者の指に作用する負担が小さくなる。 As shown in FIG. 1, the clamp portion 12 is attached to the second opening 11 </ b> B of the main body 11 by the temporary fixing portion 14. The clamp part 12 is a member which clamps the cord-like member 24 together with the main body part 11 when assembled as the cord fastener 10. The clamp portion 12 is a columnar member having an elliptical or substantially elliptical cross-sectional shape whose width in the vertical direction is longer than the width in the lateral direction when viewed from the front. Since the clamp 12 has such a shape, the cross-sectional area of the front end face of the clamp 12 is increased, and the load acting on the finger of the user pushing this portion is reduced.
 図3に示すように、クランプ部12の左右方向外周には、前方側から後方側にかけて当接面15A、15Bが形成されている。当接面15A、15Bは、本体部11内でクランプ部12が回転移動することを規制する。 As shown in FIG. 3, contact surfaces 15 </ b> A and 15 </ b> B are formed on the outer periphery in the left-right direction of the clamp portion 12 from the front side to the rear side. The contact surfaces 15A, 15B restrict the rotational movement of the clamp 12 in the main body 11.
 図2に示すように、当接面15A、15Bは、長方形形状に形成された平面であり、一部が第2挿通孔23によって切り欠かれている。当接面15A、15Bは、図3に示すように、左方向側と右方向側に形成され、図4に示すように、お互いが平行になるように対向する位置に形成されている。図4に示すように、クランプ部12の前方側は、当接面15A、15Bが形成されていることにより、左右が切り欠かれた略楕円形状に形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 2, the contact surfaces 15 </ b> A and 15 </ b> B are flat surfaces formed in a rectangular shape, and a part thereof is cut away by the second insertion hole 23. As shown in FIG. 3, the contact surfaces 15A and 15B are formed on the left side and the right side, and as shown in FIG. 4, are formed at opposing positions so as to be parallel to each other. As shown in FIG. 4, the front side of the clamp portion 12 is formed into a substantially elliptical shape in which the left and right sides are cut off by forming the contact surfaces 15A and 15B.
 図1に示すように、クランプ部12には、第2挿通孔23が形成されている。第2挿通孔23は、紐状部材24を挿通させるための孔である。第2挿通孔23は、左方から見た場合、上下方向の長さが前後方向の長さよりも長い楕円形状または略楕円形状とされている。このように、第2挿通孔23を、楕円形状または略楕円形状とすることで、複数の紐状部材を第2挿通孔23に通すことができる。更に、第2挿通孔23は、その大きさが第1挿通孔20A、20Bと同一又は略同一に形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 1, a second insertion hole 23 is formed in the clamp portion 12. The second insertion hole 23 is a hole for inserting the string-like member 24. When viewed from the left, the second insertion hole 23 has an elliptical shape or a substantially elliptical shape in which the length in the vertical direction is longer than the length in the front-rear direction. Thus, a plurality of string-like members can be passed through the second insertion hole 23 by making the second insertion hole 23 elliptical or substantially elliptical. Furthermore, the size of the second insertion hole 23 is formed to be the same as or substantially the same as that of the first insertion holes 20A and 20B.
 図2に示すように、弾性部13は、クランプ部12の後方側の端部と嵌合底部17の前方側の端部に取り付けられている。弾性部13は、紐留め具10が組み立てられたときに、紐状部材24を挟み付けるための弾性力をクランプ部12に付与する部材である。 As shown in FIG. 2, the elastic portion 13 is attached to the rear end of the clamp 12 and the front end of the fitting bottom 17. The elastic portion 13 is a member that applies an elastic force for clamping the string-like member 24 to the clamp portion 12 when the string fastener 10 is assembled.
 弾性部13は、図1および図2に示すように、複数折り曲げられたアコーディオン形状に形成され、クランプ部12と嵌合底部17との間で伸縮自在に弾性変形する。弾性部13は、荷重が作用すると弾性変形内の屈曲した状態に変形し、荷重が作用しなくなると、復元力である弾性力が発生する。弾性部13は、クランプ部12が嵌合底部17側に押圧されると弾性変形し、クランプ部12の押圧が解除されると戻る。ここで、弾性部13の形状は、蛇腹形状でも良いし、8の字形状でも良い。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the elastic portion 13 is formed into a plurality of folded accordion shapes, and elastically deforms between the clamp portion 12 and the fitting bottom portion 17 so as to be extensible and contractible. When a load is applied, the elastic portion 13 is deformed to a bent state in the elastic deformation, and when no load is applied, an elastic force which is a restoring force is generated. The elastic portion 13 elastically deforms when the clamp portion 12 is pressed to the fitting bottom 17 side, and returns when the pressure of the clamp portion 12 is released. Here, the shape of the elastic portion 13 may be a bellows shape or a figure of eight.
 また、アコーディオン形状に形成される弾性部13の曲折部分の内側を略円形に刳ることで刳り部25が形成されている。ここでは、刳り部25は、弾性部13の曲折部分、弾性部13と嵌合底部17との接続部分、および弾性部13とクランプ部12との接続部分に形成されている。刳り部25を形成することで、弾性部13が軸方向に伸縮した際に、この曲折部分に作用する応力を小さくすることができる。従って、弾性部13の曲折部分に白化現象が発生することが抑止され、ひいては当該部分が劣化してしまうことが抑止される。 In addition, by bending the inside of the bent portion of the elastic portion 13 formed in an accordion shape into a substantially circular shape, a wound portion 25 is formed. Here, the bent portion 25 is formed at the bent portion of the elastic portion 13, the connection portion between the elastic portion 13 and the fitting bottom portion 17, and the connection portion between the elastic portion 13 and the clamp portion 12. By forming the bent portion 25, when the elastic portion 13 expands and contracts in the axial direction, the stress acting on the bent portion can be reduced. Therefore, it is suppressed that the whitening phenomenon generate | occur | produces in the bending part of the elastic part 13, and it is suppressed that the said part degrades by extension.
 図2に示すように、嵌合底部17は、弾性部13の後方の端部に取り付けられている。嵌合底部17は、紐留め具10が組み立てられたときに、本体部11の第2開口部11Bを塞いで固定する部材である。嵌合底部17は、略楕円柱の部材であり、その外周には、前方側から後方側にかけて当接面18A、18Bが形成されている。当接面18A、18Bは、本体部11内で嵌合底部17が回転移動することを規制するために形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 2, the fitting bottom 17 is attached to the rear end of the elastic portion 13. The fitting bottom portion 17 is a member that closes and fixes the second opening 11B of the main body 11 when the string fastener 10 is assembled. The fitting bottom portion 17 is a substantially elliptic cylindrical member, and on the outer periphery thereof, contact surfaces 18A and 18B are formed from the front side to the rear side. The contact surfaces 18A and 18B are formed to restrict the rotational movement of the fitting bottom 17 in the main body 11.
 図3に示すように、当接面18A、18Bは、長方形形状に形成された平面である。当接面18A、18Bは、図4に示すように、お互いが平行になるように対向する位置に形成されている。図4に示すように、嵌合底部17は、当接面18A、18Bが形成されていることにより、左右が切り欠かれた略楕円柱に形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 3, the contact surfaces 18A and 18B are flat surfaces formed in a rectangular shape. As shown in FIG. 4, the contact surfaces 18A and 18B are formed at positions facing each other so as to be parallel to each other. As shown in FIG. 4, the fitting bottom portion 17 is formed into a substantially elliptic cylinder whose left and right sides are cut off by forming the contact surfaces 18A and 18B.
 図3に示すように、嵌合底部17の当接面18A、18Bには、係合雄部19A、19Bが形成されている。係合雄部19A、19Bは、嵌合底部17と本体部11とを係合するための突起である。係合雄部19A、19Bは、図3に示すように、後方から前方にかけて厚みが先細るテーパ状に形成され、図2に示すように、係合雌部22A、22Bに合わせた長方形形状に形成されている。図2に示すように、係合雄部19Aの幅寸法19Wは、係合雌部22Aの幅寸法22Wと略同じに形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 3, engaging male portions 19A and 19B are formed on the contact surfaces 18A and 18B of the fitting bottom portion 17. The engaging male portions 19A and 19B are protrusions for engaging the fitting bottom portion 17 and the main body portion 11. The engaging male portions 19A and 19B are formed in a tapered shape in which the thickness tapers from the rear to the front as shown in FIG. 3, and as shown in FIG. 2, in a rectangular shape matching the engaging female portions 22A and 22B. It is formed. As shown in FIG. 2, the width dimension 19W of the engagement male portion 19A is formed to be substantially the same as the width dimension 22W of the engagement female portion 22A.
 図3に示すように、嵌合底部17の最大幅寸法19SWは、本体部11の案内面21Aと案内面21Bとの間の幅寸法21Wより広く形成されている。係合雄部19A、19Bは、紐留め具10として組み立てられたときに、本体部11の後方側の端部と嵌合底部17の後方側の端部が同一の面上に位置するように、当接面18A、18Bの所定の位置に形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 3, the maximum width dimension 19SW of the fitting bottom 17 is formed wider than the width dimension 21W between the guide surface 21A of the main body 11 and the guide surface 21B. The engaging male portions 19A and 19B are positioned such that the rear end of the main body 11 and the rear end of the fitting bottom 17 are located on the same plane when assembled as the string fastener 10. , Are formed at predetermined positions of the contact surfaces 18A and 18B.
 図1および図4に示すように、仮止部14は、紐留め具10を組み立てるときまでに、本体部11とクランプ部12とを仮止めしている部材である。図1に示すように、仮止部14は、本体部11の後方側の端部の内周面とクランプ部12の前方側の端部の外周面との間に取り付けられている。図4に示すように、仮止部14A、14B、14C、14Dは、本体部11とクランプ部12との間に、上方右方端部、下方右方端部、上方左方端部、下方左方端部に一つずつ取り付けられている。このように、クランプ部12の各隅部に対応して配置された4つの仮止部14を介して、クランプ部12と本体部11とを仮止めすることで、両者の接続をより安定化させることができる。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the temporary fixing portion 14 is a member that temporarily holds the main body portion 11 and the clamp portion 12 by the time the string fastener 10 is assembled. As shown in FIG. 1, the temporary fixing portion 14 is attached between the inner peripheral surface of the rear end of the main body portion 11 and the outer peripheral surface of the front end of the clamp portion 12. As shown in FIG. 4, the temporary fixing portions 14A, 14B, 14C, 14D are provided between the main body portion 11 and the clamp portion 12 at the upper right end, the lower right end, the upper left end, the lower It is attached to the left end one by one. Thus, by temporarily fixing the clamp portion 12 and the main body portion 11 via the four temporary fixing portions 14 arranged corresponding to the respective corner portions of the clamp portion 12, the connection between the both is further stabilized. It can be done.
 仮止部14Aは、本体部11とクランプ部12とから容易に仮止解除ができるように、破断が容易な所定の寸法の小さな略直方体形状に形成されている。具体的には、仮止部14Aが本体部11と接続する部分の面積は、仮止部14Aがクランプ部12と接続する部分の断面積よりも大きくされている。紐留め具10の製造工程においては、図1を参照して、仮止部14Aを破断させて、クランプ部12を本体部11の内部に挿入する。この時、仮止部14Aをかかる形状とすることで、仮止部14Aとクランプ部12との接続部分で、仮止部14Aが分断され、仮止部14Aは本体部11側に残存するようになる。従って、仮止部14Aがクランプ部12側に残存しないので、仮止部14Aから突出する仮止部14Aが洋服に引っかかったり、使用者の指を傷つけたりすることがない。このような形状は、他の仮止部14B、14C、14Dに関しても同様である。 The temporary fixing portion 14A is formed in a substantially rectangular shape having a predetermined size, which is easy to be broken, so as to be easily released from the main body portion 11 and the clamp portion 12. Specifically, the area of the portion where the temporary fixing portion 14A is connected to the main body portion 11 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the portion where the temporary fixing portion 14A is connected to the clamp portion 12. In the manufacturing process of the string fastener 10, referring to FIG. 1, the temporary fixing portion 14A is broken, and the clamp portion 12 is inserted into the inside of the main body portion 11. At this time, by forming the temporary fixing portion 14A in such a shape, the temporary fixing portion 14A is divided at the connection portion between the temporary fixing portion 14A and the clamp portion 12 so that the temporary fixing portion 14A remains on the main body 11 side. become. Accordingly, since the temporary fixing portion 14A does not remain on the clamp portion 12 side, the temporary fixing portion 14A protruding from the temporary fixing portion 14A does not get caught on clothes or scratch the user's finger. Such a shape is the same as for the other temporary fixing portions 14B, 14C, 14D.
 図1および図2を参照して、クランプ部12および嵌合底部17の左右側面を部分的に内側に溝状に窪ませることで、後述する組み立て時に仮止部14A等を退避するための退避溝26A等が形成されている。ここでは、各仮止部14A、14B、14C、14Dに対応して、退避溝26A、26B、26C、26Dが形成されている。図1では、仮止部14Aの後方領域に対応する部分の、クランプ部12および嵌合底部17の左方側面を溝状に窪ませることで退避溝26Aが形成されている。退避溝26Aを形成することで、組み立て時に仮止部14Aが本体部11側に残存しても、クランプ部12および嵌合底部17が本体部11に挿入される際に、仮止部14Aが退避溝26Aを通過する。よって、仮止部14Aが、クランプ部12および嵌合底部17に接触することが防止されている。 With reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, the left and right side surfaces of clamp 12 and fitting bottom 17 are partially recessed inward so that they are retracted for retracting tacking portion 14A and the like during assembly described later. Grooves 26A and the like are formed. Here, retraction grooves 26A, 26B, 26C, 26D are formed corresponding to the temporary fixing portions 14A, 14B, 14C, 14D. In FIG. 1, a recess 26A is formed by recessing the left side surface of the clamp 12 and the fitting bottom 17 in a portion corresponding to the rear region of the temporary fixing portion 14A. By forming the retraction groove 26A, even when the temporary fixing portion 14A remains on the main body 11 side at the time of assembly, when the clamp portion 12 and the fitting bottom 17 are inserted into the main body 11, the temporary fixing portion 14A is It passes through the evacuation groove 26A. Thus, the temporary fixing portion 14A is prevented from contacting the clamp portion 12 and the fitting bottom portion 17.
 同様に、仮止部14Bの後方側に対応する箇所のクランプ部12および嵌合底部17の側面に退避溝26Bが形成されている。また、ここでは図示しないが、紐留め具10の右方側に形成される仮止部14C、14Dの後方側に対応して、退避溝26C、26Dが形成されている。 Similarly, a withdrawal groove 26B is formed on the side surface of the clamp portion 12 and the fitting bottom portion 17 at a position corresponding to the rear side of the temporary fixing portion 14B. Further, although not shown here, retraction grooves 26C, 26D are formed corresponding to the rear sides of the temporary fixing portions 14C, 14D formed on the right side of the string fastener 10.
 更に、図2を参照して、クランプ部12の第2挿通孔23の後方側側面に、前方に向かって突出する係合突起部27が複数形成されている。係合突起部27は、使用状況下において第2挿通孔23に紐状部材24が挿通された際に、その紐状部材24に食い込むことで、紐状部材24の移動を防止する機能を有する。特に本形態では、紐を留める弾性力を発揮する弾性部13は樹脂からなるため、得られる弾性力には限りがあるが、このように係合突起部27が紐状部材24に食い込むことで、紐留め具10が紐状部材24を留める効果を十分に大きくすることができる。 Furthermore, referring to FIG. 2, a plurality of engaging protrusions 27 protruding forward are formed on the rear side surface of the second insertion hole 23 of the clamp portion 12. The engagement protrusion 27 has a function of preventing movement of the string-like member 24 by biting into the string-like member 24 when the string-like member 24 is inserted into the second insertion hole 23 under use conditions. . In particular, in the present embodiment, the elastic portion 13 that exerts the elastic force to fasten the cord is made of resin, so the elastic force obtained is limited, but the engagement protrusion 27 bites into the cord-like member 24 in this manner. The effect of the cord fastener 10 for fastening the cord-like member 24 can be made sufficiently large.
 紐留め具10を組み立てることで製造する工程と、製造された紐留具に紐状部材24を挟み込む工程について、図5および図6に基づいて説明する。図5は、紐留め具10を組み立てる工程を示す側面図および断面図である。図6は、組み立てられた紐留め具10に紐状部材24を通す工程を示す側面図および断面図である。なお、図5および図6は、本体部11の内部の状態を示すため、その内部の状態を破線で示し、本体部11の一部を切断した状態を示している。 A process of manufacturing by assembling the cord fastener 10 and a process of sandwiching the cord-like member 24 in the manufactured cord retainer will be described based on FIGS. 5 and 6. FIG. 5 is a side view and a cross-sectional view showing the process of assembling the cord fastener 10. FIG. 6 is a side view and a cross-sectional view showing the process of passing the string-like member 24 through the assembled string fastener 10. As shown in FIG. 5 and 6 show a state of the inside of the main body portion 11 by a broken line and show a state of cutting off a part of the main body portion 11 in order to show the state of the inside of the main body portion 11.
 まず、図5を参照して、紐留め具10を組み立てる工程について説明する。 First, with reference to FIG. 5, the process of assembling the string fastener 10 will be described.
 図5(A)に示すように、紐留め具10を用意し、本体部11側にクランプ部12を押し込む。仮止部14A、14Bは、クランプ部12が所定の力以上で本体部11側に押圧されたとき、破断する。仮止部14A、14Bが破断すると、本体部11からクランプ部12が外れる。本体部11からクランプ部12が外れた状態で、さらに、クランプ部12を押し込む。 As shown in FIG. 5A, the string fastener 10 is prepared, and the clamp 12 is pushed into the main body 11 side. The temporary fixing portions 14A and 14B break when the clamp portion 12 is pressed toward the main body portion 11 with a predetermined force or more. When the temporary fixing portions 14A and 14B break, the clamp portion 12 is detached from the main body portion 11. With the clamp 12 removed from the main body 11, the clamp 12 is further pushed.
 クランプ部12は、図3に示すように、その当接面15Aが、本体部11の内周面に形成された案内面21Aに当接された状態で押し込まれる。クランプ部12は、その当接面15Bが、本体部11の内周面に形成された案内面21Bに当接された状態で押し込まれる。これにより、クランプ部12は、本体部11内で回転することなく押し込まれる。 As shown in FIG. 3, the clamp portion 12 is pushed in a state in which the contact surface 15 </ b> A is in contact with a guide surface 21 </ b> A formed on the inner peripheral surface of the main body 11. The clamp portion 12 is pushed in a state where the contact surface 15B is in contact with the guide surface 21B formed on the inner peripheral surface of the main body portion 11. Thereby, the clamp part 12 is pushed without rotating in the main body part 11.
 また、図5(B)に示すように、本形態では、クランプ部12および嵌合底部17の側面には、退避溝26A、26Bが形成されているので、本体部11に挿入されるクランプ部12および嵌合底部17が、仮止部14A、14Bに接触してしまうことが抑止されている。 Further, as shown in FIG. 5B, in the present embodiment, since the retraction grooves 26A and 26B are formed on the side surfaces of the clamp portion 12 and the fitting bottom portion 17, the clamp portion to be inserted into the main body portion 11 It is suppressed that 12 and the fitting bottom part 17 contact temporary stop part 14A, 14B.
 図3に示すように、当接面18Aと当接面18Bとの間の幅寸法18Wは、案内面21Aと案内面21Bとの間の幅寸法21Wよりも狭い。嵌合底部17の幅寸法18Wと2つの係合雄部19A、19Bの厚み寸法を合わせた嵌合底部17の最大幅寸法19SWは、案内面21Aと案内面21Bとの間の幅寸法21Wよりも広い。 As shown in FIG. 3, the width dimension 18W between the abutment surface 18A and the abutment surface 18B is narrower than the width dimension 21W between the guide surface 21A and the guide surface 21B. The maximum width dimension 19SW of the fitting bottom portion 17 obtained by combining the width dimension 18W of the fitting bottom portion 17 and the thickness dimensions of the two engaging male portions 19A and 19B is greater than the width dimension 21W between the guiding surface 21A and the guiding surface 21B. Too wide.
 このため、図5(C)に示すように、嵌合底部17を本体部11内に押し込もうとしても、係合雄部19A、19B(図3参照)が本体部11の後方側の端部に当接した状態になる。そして、嵌合底部17の前方側が、第2開口部11Bを塞いだ状態になる。この状態でさらに、嵌合底部17を本体部11に強引に押し込んで無理嵌めする。係合雄部19A、19Bは、後方から前方にかけて厚みが先細るテーパ状に形成されているため、比較的弱い力で嵌合底部17を本体部11に無理嵌めすることができる。 For this reason, as shown in FIG. 5C, even when trying to push the fitting bottom 17 into the main body 11, the engaging male portions 19A and 19B (see FIG. 3) are the ends on the rear side of the main body 11. It will be in the state where it abuts on the part. Then, the front side of the fitting bottom 17 closes the second opening 11B. Further, in this state, the fitting bottom portion 17 is forcibly pushed into the main body portion 11 and forcibly fitted. Since the engaging male portions 19A and 19B are formed in a tapered shape in which the thickness is tapered from the rear to the front, the fitting bottom 17 can be force-fit to the main body 11 with a relatively weak force.
 図3に示すように、嵌合底部17は、その当接面18A、18Bが、本体部11の内周面に形成された案内面21A、21Bに当接された状態で押し込まれる。つまり、嵌合底部17は、本体部11内で回転することなく押し込まれる。嵌合底部17が本体部11内に押し込まれると、図5(D)に示すように、係合雄部19A、19Bが係合雌部22A、22Bに係合する。係合雄部19A、19Bは、案内面21A、21Bに当接される当接面18A、18Bに形成されているため容易に係合雌部22A、22Bに係合することができる。 As shown in FIG. 3, the fitting bottom portion 17 is pushed in such a state that the contact surfaces 18A and 18B are in contact with the guide surfaces 21A and 21B formed on the inner peripheral surface of the main body 11. That is, the fitting bottom portion 17 is pushed without rotating in the main body portion 11. When the fitting bottom portion 17 is pushed into the main body portion 11, as shown in FIG. 5D, the engaging male portions 19A and 19B engage with the engaging female portions 22A and 22B. The engaging male portions 19A, 19B are formed on the contact surfaces 18A, 18B that are in contact with the guide surfaces 21A, 21B, so that they can be easily engaged with the engaging female portions 22A, 22B.
 つまり、係合雄部19A、19Bは、嵌合底部17を本体部11内で回転させて、係合雌部22A、22Bに係合する位置に調節することなく係合することができる。図2に示すように、係合雄部19Aは、その幅寸法19Wと高さ寸法19Hが、係合雌部22Aの幅寸法22Wと高さ寸法22Hと略同じなので、しっかりと係合する。係合雄部19A、19Bは、後方側が厚みがあるテーパ状に形成されているため、係合雌部22A、22Bにしっかりと引っ掛かり係合する。 That is, the engaging male portions 19A, 19B can be engaged without rotating the fitting bottom portion 17 in the main body portion 11 and adjusting to the position engaging with the engaging female portions 22A, 22B. As shown in FIG. 2, the engaging male portion 19A is firmly engaged because the width dimension 19W and the height dimension 19H thereof are substantially the same as the width dimension 22W and the height dimension 22H of the engaging female portion 22A. The engagement male portions 19A and 19B are formed in a tapered shape having a thick rear side, and thus firmly engage with the engagement female portions 22A and 22B.
 つまり、クランプ部12が嵌合底部17側に押し込まれても、嵌合底部17は本体部11から外れない。図5(D)に示すように、係合雄部19A、19Bが係合雌部22A、22Bに係合して、紐留め具10として組み立てられると、本体部11の後方側の端部は、嵌合底部17の後方側の端部と同一の面上に位置する。嵌合底部17は、本体部11の第2開口部11Bを塞いだ状態で本体部11に係合される。 That is, even if the clamp portion 12 is pushed to the fitting bottom 17 side, the fitting bottom 17 does not come off the main body 11. As shown in FIG. 5D, when the engaging male portions 19A and 19B engage with the engaging female portions 22A and 22B and are assembled as the string fastener 10, the rear end of the main body portion 11 is , And on the same plane as the rear end of the fitting bottom 17. The fitting bottom portion 17 is engaged with the main body portion 11 in a state in which the second opening portion 11B of the main body portion 11 is closed.
 次に、図6を参照して、組み立てられた紐留め具10に紐状部材24を通す工程について説明する。紐留め具10は、紐状部材24に挿入されていない場合、図6(A)に示す状態になっている。嵌合底部17は、本体部11の後方側の端部で、第2開口部11B(図1参照)を塞いで固定している。弾性部13は本体部11内に位置し、クランプ部12は前方側の端部が本体部11の第1開口部11A(図1参照)より突出している。そして、本体部11の第1挿通孔20Aは、クランプ部12の第2挿通孔23の位置が一致していない状態になっている。 Next, with reference to FIG. 6, the process of letting the string-like member 24 pass through the assembled string fastener 10 will be described. When the string fastener 10 is not inserted into the string-like member 24, it is in the state shown in FIG. 6 (A). The fitting bottom 17 closes and fixes the second opening 11B (see FIG. 1) at the rear end of the main body 11. The elastic portion 13 is located in the main body portion 11, and the clamp portion 12 has a front end portion protruding from the first opening 11A (see FIG. 1) of the main body portion 11. The first insertion holes 20A of the main body 11 are in a state in which the positions of the second insertion holes 23 of the clamp 12 do not match.
 紐状部材24を紐留め具10に挿入するには、図6(B)に示す状態にする。まず、弾性部13の弾性力に抗して、本体部11の後方側にクランプ部12を押圧する。つまり、クランプ部12を、本体部11の第2開口部11Bを塞いで固定されている嵌合底部17に向かって押圧する。クランプ部12を押圧し、第1挿通孔20Aと第2挿通孔23の中心が一致又はほぼ一致するようにする。その状態で、図6(C)に示すように、紐状部材24を第1挿通孔20Aと第2挿通孔23に挿入し貫通する。 In order to insert the string-like member 24 into the string fastener 10, the state shown in FIG. First, the clamp portion 12 is pressed to the rear side of the main body portion 11 against the elastic force of the elastic portion 13. That is, the clamp portion 12 is pressed toward the fitting bottom portion 17 which is fixed by closing the second opening portion 11B of the main body portion 11. The clamp portion 12 is pressed so that the centers of the first insertion hole 20A and the second insertion hole 23 coincide or substantially coincide. In that state, as shown in FIG. 6C, the string-like member 24 is inserted into and penetrated through the first insertion hole 20A and the second insertion hole 23.
 クランプ部12を押圧している力を解除すると、図6(D)に示すように、クランプ部12は、弾性部13の弾性力で前方側に移動する。すなわち、この弾性力で、本体部11の第1挿通孔20Aと、クランプ部12の第2挿通孔23とで、紐状部材24を挟み付けるようにして固定、すなわち留めることができる。紐状部材24の所望の位置に紐留め具10を移動させる場合には、本体部11に対してクランプ部12を押し込む方向に移動させる。 When the force pressing the clamp portion 12 is released, as shown in FIG. 6D, the clamp portion 12 moves forward by the elastic force of the elastic portion 13. That is, by the elastic force, the string-like member 24 can be fixed, that is, held by the first insertion holes 20A of the main body 11 and the second insertion holes 23 of the clamp 12. In order to move the string fastener 10 to a desired position of the string-like member 24, the clamp 12 is moved in the direction of pushing the main body 11.
 第1挿通孔20Aと第2挿通孔23との中心が一致又はほぼ一致するようになると、紐状部材24に対して本体部11およびクランプ部12が移動可能になるので所望の位置まで移動させる。クランプ部12に対する押圧をやめると、弾性部13の弾性力でクランプ部12が反押圧方向に移動する。本体部11の第1挿通孔20Aと、クランプ部12の第2挿通孔23とで、紐状部材24を挟み付けるようにして固定、すなわち留めることができる。 When the centers of the first insertion hole 20A and the second insertion hole 23 coincide or substantially coincide with each other, the main body portion 11 and the clamp portion 12 can move with respect to the string-like member 24 so that they move to a desired position. . When pressing against the clamp portion 12 is stopped, the elastic force of the elastic portion 13 causes the clamp portion 12 to move in the opposite direction. The cord-like member 24 can be fixed, that is, held by the first insertion hole 20A of the main body 11 and the second insertion hole 23 of the clamp 12 in a sandwiching manner.
 ここで、図2を参照して説明したように、第2挿通孔23の後方側の側面には係合突起部27が形成されている。従って、弾性部13の弾性力で、係合突起部27は紐状部材24に係合する。本形態の紐留め具10は、合成樹脂から成る弾性部13の弾性力で紐を留めていることから、金属からなるバネを用いる一般的なものと比較すると、係合力が小さい場合も考える。本形態では、このように係合突起部27を紐状部材24に係合させることで、使用状況下にて紐状部材24から紐留め具10が移動してしまうことを抑止している。 Here, as described with reference to FIG. 2, an engagement protrusion 27 is formed on the rear side surface of the second insertion hole 23. Therefore, the engagement protrusion 27 engages with the string-like member 24 by the elastic force of the elastic portion 13. Since the cord fastener 10 of this embodiment fastens the cord by the elastic force of the elastic portion 13 made of synthetic resin, it is also considered that the engaging force is small as compared with a general one using a metal spring. In the present embodiment, the engagement protrusion 27 is engaged with the string-like member 24 in this manner to prevent the string fastener 10 from moving from the string-like member 24 under use conditions.
 <第2の実施の形態>
 図7以降の図を参照して、第2の実施の形態にかかる紐留め具50を説明する。紐留め具50の基本的な構成は上記した紐留め具10と同様であるので、以下では重複する説明は割愛する。紐留め具50では、紐留め具10の嵌合底部17を備えていない。また、紐留め具50では、クランプ部52の弾性変形する側壁が弾性部53を構成している。従って、紐留め具50は、特に弾性部53の構成が簡素であるため、全体的な大きさを小さくすることができ、このような紐留め具50を洋服に採用することで、着用時の違和感を軽減することが出来る。
Second Embodiment
The string fastener 50 according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings after FIG. 7. The basic configuration of the string fastener 50 is the same as that of the above-described string fastener 10, and therefore redundant descriptions will be omitted below. The strap 50 does not have the fitting bottom 17 of the strap 10. Further, in the string fastener 50, the elastically deformable side wall of the clamp portion 52 constitutes an elastic portion 53. Therefore, since the configuration of the elastic portion 53 is particularly simple, the string fastener 50 can be reduced in overall size, and by adopting such a string fastener 50 for clothes, it can be worn. It can reduce discomfort.
 図7から図10を参照して、紐留め具50の構成を説明する。 The configuration of the strap 50 will be described with reference to FIGS. 7 to 10.
 図7に示すように、紐留め具50は、本体部51、クランプ部52、弾性部53および仮止部55A、55B等とから構成されている。本形態では、仮止部55A、55B、55C、55Dを有するが、以下の説明ではこれらを仮止部55と総称する場合もある。 As shown in FIG. 7, the string fastener 50 includes a main body 51, a clamp 52, an elastic part 53, and temporary fixing parts 55A and 55B. In the present embodiment, the temporary fixing portions 55A, 55B, 55C, 55D are provided, but in the following description, these may be collectively referred to as the temporary holding portion 55.
 紐留め具50は、本体部51、クランプ部52および仮止部55が一体に形成されている。本体部51およびクランプ部52は、本体部51の中心軸上に並んで取り付けられている。 The main body portion 51, the clamp portion 52, and the temporary fixing portion 55 are integrally formed in the string fastener 50. The main body portion 51 and the clamp portion 52 are attached side by side on the central axis of the main body portion 51.
 本体部51は、前方側が開口する第1開口部51Aと、後方側が開口する第2開口部51Bを有する筒状の部材である。本体部51は、紐留め具50として組み立てられたときに、クランプ部52と紐状部材61(図11(C)参照)を挟み込む部材である。本体部51の内周面には、第1開口部51Aから第2開口部51B側にかけて、案内面58A、58Bが形成されている。案内面58A、58Bは、本体部51内でクランプ部52が回転移動することを規制するために形成されている。 The main body 51 is a cylindrical member having a first opening 51A open on the front side and a second opening 51B open on the rear side. The main body portion 51 is a member for sandwiching the clamp portion 52 and the string-like member 61 (see FIG. 11C) when assembled as the string fastener 50. Guide surfaces 58A and 58B are formed on the inner peripheral surface of the main body 51 from the first opening 51A to the second opening 51B. The guide surfaces 58A and 58B are formed to restrict the rotational movement of the clamp 52 in the main body 51.
 案内面58A、58Bは、図9に示すように、長方形形状に形成された平面であり、左方向側と右方向側に形成されている。また、案内面58A、58Bは、図10に示すように、お互いが平行になるように対向する位置に形成されている。図10に示すように、本体部51は、案内面58A、58Bが形成されていることにより、第1開口部51Aと第2開口部51Bとが、上下の辺が対称の弧である略長方形に形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 9, the guide surfaces 58A and 58B are flat surfaces formed in a rectangular shape, and are formed on the left side and the right side. Further, as shown in FIG. 10, the guide surfaces 58A and 58B are formed at positions facing each other so as to be parallel to each other. As shown in FIG. 10, the main body portion 51 has a substantially rectangular shape in which the first opening 51A and the second opening 51B are arcs whose upper and lower sides are symmetrical due to the formation of the guide surfaces 58A and 58B. Is formed.
 図9に示すように、本体部51には、第2開口部51B寄りの部分に第1挿通孔56A、56Bが形成されている。第1挿通孔56A、56Bは、紐状部材61を挿通させるための円形形状の孔である。第1挿通孔56Aは、本体部51の筒状の側壁と案内面58Aを貫通して形成されている。第1挿通孔56Bは、本体部51の筒状の側壁と案内面58Aを貫通して形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 9, in the main body portion 51, first insertion holes 56A, 56B are formed in a portion near the second opening 51B. The first insertion holes 56 </ b> A and 56 </ b> B are circular holes for inserting the string-like member 61. The first insertion hole 56A is formed to penetrate the cylindrical side wall of the main body 51 and the guide surface 58A. The first insertion hole 56B is formed to penetrate the cylindrical side wall of the main body 51 and the guide surface 58A.
 図7に示すように、クランプ部52は、本体部51の第2開口部51Bに仮止部55によって取り付けられている。クランプ部52は、紐留め具50として組み立てられたときに、本体部51と共に紐状部材61を挟み込む部材である。 As shown in FIG. 7, the clamp portion 52 is attached to the second opening 51 </ b> B of the main body 51 by the temporary fixing portion 55. The clamp portion 52 is a member that clamps the cord-like member 61 together with the main body 51 when assembled as the cord fastener 50.
 図9に示すように、クランプ部52の左右方向外周には、前方側から後方側にかけて当接面59A、59Bが形成されている。当接面59A、59Bは、本体部51内でクランプ部52が回転移動することを規制する。 As shown in FIG. 9, on the outer periphery in the left-right direction of the clamp portion 52, contact surfaces 59A, 59B are formed from the front side to the rear side. The contact surfaces 59A and 59B restrict the rotational movement of the clamp 52 in the main body 51.
 図7に示すように、クランプ部52には、第2挿通孔57が形成されている。第2挿通孔57は、紐状部材61を挿通させるための孔である。 As shown in FIG. 7, the clamp portion 52 is provided with a second insertion hole 57. The second insertion hole 57 is a hole for inserting the string-like member 61.
 図8に示すように、弾性部53は、クランプ部52の後方部分に形成されている壁状の部材である。弾性部53は、紐留め具50が紐留め具50として組み立てられたときに、紐状部材61を挟み付けるための弾性力を発生させる部材である。 As shown in FIG. 8, the elastic portion 53 is a wall-shaped member formed in the rear portion of the clamp portion 52. The elastic portion 53 is a member that generates an elastic force for sandwiching the string-like member 61 when the string fastener 50 is assembled as the string fastener 50.
 図8に示すように、本形態では、弾性部53は、クランプ部52の側壁として形成された壁状の部位である。弾性部53は、後方に向かって広がる傾斜形状を呈している。弾性部53の幅53Wは、その前端部付近で本体部51の内部空間の幅51Wよりも短く形成されており、その後端部付近で本体部51の内部空間の幅51Wよりも長く形成されている。従って、弾性部53を本体部51に挿入しようとすると、弾性部53は途中部分まで抵抗なく挿入され、その後は、弾性部53は内側に向かって弾性変形しつつ本体部51に挿入される。係る事項は図11を参照して説明する。 As shown in FIG. 8, in the present embodiment, the elastic portion 53 is a wall-shaped portion formed as a side wall of the clamp portion 52. The elastic portion 53 has an inclined shape that spreads rearward. The width 53W of the elastic portion 53 is shorter than the width 51W of the internal space of the main body 51 near its front end, and is longer than the width 51W of the internal space of the main body 51 near its rear end There is. Therefore, when the elastic portion 53 is to be inserted into the main body portion 51, the elastic portion 53 is inserted without resistance until halfway, and thereafter, the elastic portion 53 is inserted into the main body portion 51 while being elastically deformed inward. The matters concerned will be described with reference to FIG.
 図8に示すように、クランプ部52の後方端部には、後方からみたら円形または略円形の押圧部54が形成されている。押圧部54は、紐留め具50を使用する使用状況下にて、紐留め具50を操作するために、前方に向かって指で押圧される部位である。押圧部54の上下方向および左右方向の大きさは、本体部51の内部空間の上下方向および左右方向の大きさよりも、大きく形成されている。従って、クランプ部52を本体部51側に押し込んでも、押圧部54は本体部51には挿入されない。押圧部54の面積が広いことで、使用者の指に作用する負担を小さくすることができる。本形態では、組み立て時に押圧部54を本体部51の内部を通過させる必要が無いので、押圧部54を、本体部51よりも大きく形成することができる。 As shown in FIG. 8, at the rear end of the clamp portion 52, a circular or substantially circular pressing portion 54 is formed as viewed from the rear. The pressing portion 54 is a portion pressed forward by a finger in order to operate the string fastener 50 in a use situation where the string fastener 50 is used. The sizes of the pressing portion 54 in the vertical and horizontal directions are larger than the sizes of the internal space of the main body 51 in the vertical and horizontal directions. Therefore, even if the clamp 52 is pushed toward the main body 51, the pressing part 54 is not inserted into the main body 51. The large area of the pressing portion 54 can reduce the load acting on the user's finger. In the present embodiment, the pressing portion 54 does not need to pass through the inside of the main body portion 51 at the time of assembly, so the pressing portion 54 can be formed larger than the main body portion 51.
 図7を参照して、クランプ部52の前後方向途中部分には、弾性部53同士を繋ぐクランプ部位60が形成されている。クランプ部位60は、クランプ部52を本体部51に押し込むと、第1挿通孔56Aの後端部分よりも前方に位置するようになる。後述するように、紐状部材61は、第1挿通孔56A、56Bおよびクランプ部位60で、留められるようになる。また、クランプ部52を本体部51に挿入すると、弾性部53が内側に向かって変形するとともに、クランプ部位60も前方に向かって変形するようにしてもよい。このようにすることで、クランプ部52を後方に押す弾性力を大きくし、紐状部材61を留める効果を大きくすることができる。本形態では、クランプ部52には、使用状況下にて紐状部材61が挿通する第2挿通孔57が形成されるが、この第2挿通孔57は、押圧部54、弾性部53およびクランプ部位60で囲まれる空間として形成されている。 Referring to FIG. 7, a clamp portion 60 connecting elastic portions 53 is formed at an intermediate portion in the front-rear direction of clamp portion 52. When the clamp portion 52 is pushed into the main body portion 51, the clamp portion 60 is positioned forward of the rear end portion of the first insertion hole 56A. As will be described later, the string-like member 61 comes to be held by the first insertion holes 56A, 56B and the clamp portion 60. In addition, when the clamp portion 52 is inserted into the main body portion 51, the elastic portion 53 may be deformed inwardly, and the clamp portion 60 may also be deformed forward. By doing this, it is possible to increase the elastic force that pushes the clamp portion 52 rearward, and to increase the effect of fastening the string-like member 61. In the present embodiment, the second insertion hole 57 through which the string-like member 61 is inserted under the condition of use is formed in the clamp portion 52. The second insertion hole 57 includes the pressing portion 54, the elastic portion 53 and the clamp. It is formed as a space surrounded by the part 60.
 図10を参照して、本体部51の内部でクランプ部52が移動することを防止するために、クランプ部52の当接面59A、59Bを部分的に外側に向かって突出させることで突出部62A、62Bを形成している。また、本体部51の案内面58A、58Bを溝状に外側に窪ませることで、凹状溝63A、63Bが形成されている。そして、クランプ部52を本体部51に挿入すると、クランプ部52の突出部62A、62Bは、本体部51の凹状溝63A、63Bに当接する。このことにより、本体部51の内部におけるクランプ部52の位置がずれてしまうことが抑止されている。 Referring to FIG. 10, in order to prevent movement of clamp 52 within main body 51, a projection is made by partially projecting contact surfaces 59A, 59B of clamp 52 outward. 62A, 62B are formed. Further, concave grooves 63A, 63B are formed by recessing the guide surfaces 58A, 58B of the main body 51 in the form of grooves. Then, when the clamp 52 is inserted into the main body 51, the protrusions 62A and 62B of the clamp 52 abut the concave grooves 63A and 63B of the main body 51. By this, it is suppressed that the position of the clamp part 52 in the inside of the main-body part 51 shifts | deviates.
 図7および図10に示すように、仮止部55は、紐留め具50を組み立てるときまでに、本体部51とクランプ部52とを仮止めしている部材である。図7に示すように、仮止部55は、本体部51の後方側の端部の内周面とクランプ部52の前方側の端部の外周面との間に取り付けられている。図10に示すように、仮止部55A、55B、55C、55Dは、本体部51とクランプ部52との間に、上方右方端部、下方右方端部、上方左方端部、下方左方端部に一つずつ取り付けられている。このように、クランプ部52の各隅部に対応して配置された4つの仮止部55を介して、クランプ部52と本体部51とを仮止めすることで、両者の接続をより安定化させることができる。 As shown in FIGS. 7 and 10, the temporary fixing portion 55 is a member that temporarily holds the main body portion 51 and the clamp portion 52 by the time the string fastener 50 is assembled. As shown in FIG. 7, the temporary fixing portion 55 is attached between the inner peripheral surface of the rear end of the main body portion 51 and the outer peripheral surface of the front end of the clamp portion 52. As shown in FIG. 10, the temporary fixing portions 55A, 55B, 55C, 55D are provided between the main body 51 and the clamp 52 at the upper right end, the lower right end, the upper left end, the lower It is attached to the left end one by one. Thus, by temporarily fixing the clamp portion 52 and the main body portion 51 via the four temporary fixing portions 55 disposed corresponding to the respective corner portions of the clamp portion 52, the connection between the both is further stabilized. It can be done.
 仮止部55Aは、本体部51とクランプ部52とから容易に仮止解除ができるように、破断が容易な所定の寸法の小さな略直方体形状に形成されている。具体的には、仮止部55Aが本体部51と接続する部分の面積は、仮止部55Aがクランプ部52と接続する部分の断面積よりも大きくされている。紐留め具50の製造工程においては、図7を参照して、仮止部55Aを破断させて、クランプ部52を本体部51の内部に挿入する。この時、仮止部55Aをかかる形状とすることで、仮止部55Aとクランプ部52との接続部分で、仮止部55Aが分断され、仮止部55Aは本体部51側に残存するようになる。係る事項は、他の仮止部55B、55C、55D(図10参照)に関しても同様である。 The temporary fixing portion 55A is formed in a substantially rectangular shape having a predetermined size, which is easy to be broken, so as to be easily released from the main body portion 51 and the clamp portion 52. Specifically, the area of the portion where the temporary fixing portion 55A connects with the main body portion 51 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the portion where the temporary fixing portion 55A connects with the clamp portion 52. In the manufacturing process of the string fastener 50, referring to FIG. 7, the temporary fixing portion 55A is broken, and the clamp portion 52 is inserted into the inside of the main body portion 51. At this time, by forming the temporary fixing portion 55A in such a shape, the temporary fixing portion 55A is divided at the connection portion between the temporary fixing portion 55A and the clamp portion 52, and the temporary fixing portion 55A remains on the main body 51 side. become. The matter which concerns is the same also regarding other temporary fixing parts 55B, 55C, 55D (refer FIG. 10).
 紐留め具50を組み立てる工程と、組み立てられた紐留具に紐状部材61を挟み込む工程について、図11に基づいて説明する。図11は、紐留め具50を組み立てる工程および紐留め具50に紐状部材61を挿通させる工程を示す正面図および外観図である。図11は、本体部51の内部の状態を示すため、その内部の状態を破線で示し、本体部51の一部を切断した状態を示している。 The process of assembling the cord fastener 50 and the process of sandwiching the cord-like member 61 in the assembled cord fastener will be described based on FIG. FIG. 11 is a front view and an external view showing a step of assembling the string fastener 50 and a step of inserting the string-like member 61 into the string fastener 50. As shown in FIG. FIG. 11 shows the internal state of the main body 51 by a broken line and shows a state in which a part of the main body 51 is cut.
 まず、図11(A)および図11(B)を参照して、紐留め具50を組み立てる工程について説明する。 First, with reference to FIG. 11 (A) and FIG. 11 (B), the process of assembling the string fastener 50 will be described.
 図11(A)に示すように、紐留め具50を用意し、本体部51側にクランプ部52を押し込む。図8に示す、仮止部55A、55Bは、クランプ部52が所定の力以上で本体部51側に押圧されたとき、破断する。本体部51から仮止部55A、55Bが外れると、本体部51からクランプ部52が外れる。本体部51からクランプ部52が外れた状態で、さらに、クランプ部52を押し込む。 As shown in FIG. 11A, the string fastener 50 is prepared, and the clamp 52 is pushed into the main body 51 side. The temporary fixing portions 55A and 55B shown in FIG. 8 break when the clamp portion 52 is pressed toward the main body portion 51 with a predetermined force or more. When the temporary fixing portions 55A and 55B are detached from the main body portion 51, the clamp portion 52 is detached from the main body portion 51. With the clamp 52 removed from the main body 51, the clamp 52 is further pushed.
 クランプ部52は、図9に示す、当接面59A、59Bが、本体部51の内周面に形成された案内面58A、58Bに当接された状態で押し込まれる。これにより、クランプ部52は、本体部51内で回転することなく押し込まれる。 The clamp portion 52 is pushed in a state where the contact surfaces 59A and 59B shown in FIG. 9 are in contact with the guide surfaces 58A and 58B formed on the inner peripheral surface of the main body 51. Thereby, the clamp part 52 is pushed without rotating in the main body part 51.
 図8に示すように、クランプ部52の前方端部の幅52Wは、本体部51の内部空間の幅51Wよりも短い。また、クランプ部52の後端に形成されている押圧部54の幅54Wは、51Wよりも長い。また、クランプ部52の前後方向の中間部分に形成される弾性部53の幅53Wは、その前端部付近で51Wよりも短く、その後端部付近で51Wよりも長い。 As shown in FIG. 8, the width 52 W of the front end of the clamp 52 is shorter than the width 51 W of the internal space of the main body 51. Further, the width 54W of the pressing portion 54 formed at the rear end of the clamp portion 52 is longer than 51W. Further, the width 53W of the elastic portion 53 formed in the middle portion in the front-rear direction of the clamp portion 52 is shorter than 51W near its front end and longer than 51W near its rear end.
 このため、図11(B)に示すように、クランプ部52を本体部51に押し込むと、クランプ部52の弾性部53が内側に弾性変形しつつ、クランプ部52の前方部分は本体部51に収納される。また、クランプ部52の後端部分に形成されている押圧部54は、本体部51には挿入されず、本体部51の後方側で外部に露出している。このとき、本体部51の第1挿通孔56Aと、クランプ部52の第2挿通孔57とは、左右方向から見て重畳している。また、クランプ部52の弾性部53が内側に弾性変形して、本体部51の内壁に当接することで、クランプ部52を後方に向かって移動させようとする弾性力が生じる。 Therefore, as shown in FIG. 11B, when the clamp portion 52 is pushed into the main body portion 51, the elastic portion 53 of the clamp portion 52 elastically deforms inward, and the front portion of the clamp portion 52 It is stored. Further, the pressing portion 54 formed at the rear end portion of the clamp portion 52 is not inserted into the main body portion 51, and is exposed to the outside on the rear side of the main body portion 51. At this time, the first insertion holes 56A of the main body portion 51 and the second insertion holes 57 of the clamp portion 52 overlap each other as viewed in the left-right direction. In addition, the elastic portion 53 of the clamp portion 52 is elastically deformed inward and abuts against the inner wall of the main body portion 51 to generate an elastic force for moving the clamp portion 52 rearward.
 次に、図11(C)および図11(D)を参照して、上記のように組み立てられた紐留め具50に紐状部材61を通す工程について説明する。 Next, with reference to FIG.11 (C) and FIG.11 (D), the process of letting the string-like member 61 pass through the string fastener 50 assembled as mentioned above is demonstrated.
 紐状部材61を紐留め具50に挿入するには、図11(B)に示す状態にする。まず、使用者が弾性部53の弾性力に抗して押圧部54を前方に向かって押圧することで、本体部51にクランプ部52の前方側を挿入する。そのようにすると、本体部51の第1挿通孔56Aと、クランプ部52の第2挿通孔57が、重畳するようになる。その状態で、図11(C)に示すように、紐状部材61を第1挿通孔56Aと第2挿通孔57に挿入し貫通する。 In order to insert the string-like member 61 into the string fastener 50, the state shown in FIG. First, the user presses the pressing portion 54 forward against the elastic force of the elastic portion 53, thereby inserting the front side of the clamp portion 52 into the main body 51. Then, the first insertion hole 56A of the main body 51 and the second insertion hole 57 of the clamp 52 overlap. In that state, as shown in FIG. 11C, the string-like member 61 is inserted into and penetrated through the first insertion hole 56A and the second insertion hole 57.
 クランプ部52を押圧している力を解除すると、図11(D)に示すように、クランプ部52は、弾性部53の弾性力で後方側に移動する。具体的には、外側に向かって変形を戻そうとする弾性部53の弾性力は、弾性部53が本体部51の内面に当接して摺動することで、後方に向かって作用するように成る。この弾性力で、本体部51の第1挿通孔56Aと、クランプ部52の第2挿通孔57とで、紐状部材61を挟み付けるようにして固定、すなわち留めることができる。 When the force pressing the clamp portion 52 is released, as shown in FIG. 11D, the clamp portion 52 is moved rearward by the elastic force of the elastic portion 53. Specifically, the elastic force of the elastic portion 53 which tries to return the deformation toward the outside acts in a backward direction by the elastic portion 53 coming into contact with the inner surface of the main body portion 51 and sliding. Become. With this elastic force, the string-like member 61 can be fixed or held by the first insertion hole 56A of the main body 51 and the second insertion hole 57 of the clamp 52 in a sandwiching manner.
 紐状部材61の所望の位置に紐留め具50を移動させる場合には、押圧部54を前方に向かって押圧することで、本体部51に対してクランプ部52を押し込む方向に移動させる。第1挿通孔56Aと第2挿通孔57とが重畳する面積が大きくなると、紐状部材61に対して本体部51およびクランプ部52が移動可能になるので、紐留め具50を所望の位置まで移動させることができる。クランプ部52に対する押圧をやめると、弾性部53の弾性力でクランプ部52が反押圧方向に移動する。従って、本体部51の第1挿通孔56Aと、クランプ部52の第2挿通孔57とで、紐状部材61を挟み付けるようにして固定、すなわち留めることができる。 When moving the string fastener 50 to a desired position of the string-like member 61, the clamp portion 52 is moved in the direction of pushing the main body portion 51 by pressing the pressing portion 54 forward. When the overlapping area of the first insertion hole 56A and the second insertion hole 57 is increased, the main body portion 51 and the clamp portion 52 can be moved relative to the string-like member 61, so that the string fastener 50 is moved to a desired position. It can be moved. When the pressing on the clamp portion 52 is stopped, the elastic force of the elastic portion 53 causes the clamp portion 52 to move in the opposite direction. Accordingly, the string-like member 61 can be fixed or held by the first insertion hole 56A of the main body 51 and the second insertion hole 57 of the clamp 52 in a sandwiching manner.
